According to a report released by the IEBC, NASA’s presidential running-mate doesn’t exits as Kalonzo Musyoka is listed as the nominee for the Presidency by the Wiper Democratic Party while Raila Odinga has been submitted as the ODM candidate with no running-mate.
In the report of 19 presidential candidates, it is only President Uhuru Kenyatta who has submitted William Ruto as his running-mate under the Jubilee Party.
NASA has been marketing the Raila / Kalonzo ticket while not realising that they might not have submitted the correct picture to the IEBC. If not sabotage, NASA is just not prepared for this election. Raila and Kalonzo ticket was hugely unveiled by NASA on April 27 at Uhuru Park.
Political parties will be allowed to amend the list before the May 21 deadline.
